3. Jebel Al Akhdar Akhdar means Green in Arabic and by driving up the mountain with fruit and vegetable gardens on the man-made terraces built on the side of the mountain, it is easy to understand why it is given this appropriate name. After several jaw dropping viewpoints, we take a beautiful walk along the edge of the mountain with stunning views over the deep valley, garden plantations and abandoned villages.

About Muskat

Muskat, Omans huvudstad, sträcker sig mellan karga berg och Omanbukten, med en stor moské, gamla fort, souker och en graciös strandpromenad.

Sultan Qaboos stora moské är stadens paradnummer, med en väldig bönesal, en enorm handvävd matta och en kristallkrona, mitt bland marmorinnergårdar. I gamla Muskat flankeras det färgstarka Al Alam-palatset av de portugisiska forten Jalali och Mirani, uppflugna på klippor ovanför hamnen.
